Hi, I have a BMW 530d E61 manual 6 speed M sport with a slipping clutch. Can anybody say if thed clutch is adjustable or is it a case of a complete replacement.

If its a complete replacement what kind of cost can I expect for this? I would rather avoid a main dealer if possible. regards Paneuro. p.s. its an LCI model.

Hi paneuro, 

im guessing yours is a dual mass flywheel… if it is, you are looking around £500 for the clutch plus fitting… 

standard one is around £200 for the kit. 
 

I had my e46 dual mass replaced for about £850 if I remember.  Any decent garage should be able to do the job.

Hi. I don't know if its a dual mass flywheel but why would the flywheel need replaced? surely it would just be the clutch plate and the pressure plate? I had look on the OEM site and there is no mention of this dual mass flywheel. I have been quoted £500 to £600  and just wondered if that was reasonable? thanks Paneuro

I checked again yesterday and was told they didn't know if it had a dual mass flywheel but if it had, it would be £1000 , if I didn't wand the dual mass flywheel they will not give any warranty on the clutch plate or flywheel.

Hi Andrew

A quick look at www.realoem.com shows it has a Dualmass Flywheel Part No.21207533869 Alternates are Part No's 21207527482 and 21207526107 

Whoever your talking to they don't inspire confidence !! A Dualmass flywheel I guess would be around the £500 to £700 mark a good quality clutch kit Pressure plate Clutch plate Release bearing and Arm from someone like Sachs would be another £250 

I have seen LUK kits for around the £800 mark complete the unanswered question is will you DIY or pay someone to fit it. If DIY is your route the car needs to be high enough to allow the Gearbox to be supported and lowered it is going to be heavy. Always use new flywheel bolts and clutch mount bolts and torque them correctly.

Good Luck

Dave

      2023 X3 Rear Bumper Problems

      Dave, the piece i I'm referring to is about 4" tall and runs the width of the bumper. It seems to be a systemic problem. The clips do not hold it in place. Has this problem been reported previously? As I said BMW has tried to fix it twice and even put in a new black insert.
